Reds Sign Edgar Garcia To Major League Contract

By Connor Byrne | December 23, 2020 at 6:59pm CDT

The Reds have signed right-hander Edgar Garcia, Bobby Nightengale of the Cincinnati Enquirer reports. It’s a major league deal, per Mark Sheldon of MLB.com. Garcia could earn a $600K salary if he makes the Reds’ roster, according to Nightengale.

The Rays non-tendered the 24-year-old Garcia earlier this month, which came not long after they acquired him from the Phillies in August. But Garcia failed to keep runs off the board in a small sample of work as a member of the Rays, with whom he yielded four ER on three hits (including two homers) and four walks in 3 1/3 innings.

Garcia saw much more action in 2019 with the Phillies, throwing 39 innings, but the results also weren’t great then. He ended the year with a 5.77 ERA/6.57 FIP and 10.38 K/9 against 6.0 BB/9.

    Just when you think you can’t figure out what the Reds are doing, they do something to make you realize that you really, really can’t figure out what they’re doing.

      I think it is clear what they are doing. Dump all their high dollar relief pitchers and replace with bargain bin deals in hopes they get lucky on one. Offer anyone with trade value to the highest bidder and rebuild the rebuild

    Reds fans gotta be disappointed in the apparent direction the Reds are taking. Okay, Bauer is too expensive, but no reason to dangle Gray and Castilla in trade talks. As noted by a previous poster, the NL Central is getting weaker, not stronger. This is the perfect time for the Reds to maybe win this thing. Backtracking ain’t gonna cut it with the fans.

      Maybe they can cut SOME costs and still win the division. Iglesias needed to go and Garrett is waiting on the wings. I think you may see a position-less (minus Gray and Castillo) pitching staff. Williams alluded to that a few years back.

          He blew some saves and didn’t want to work any non-save situations. He was pretty vocal about it especially in 2019.

    Garcia’s stats are atrocious, but after reading the article it totally makes sense why the Reds were all over this guy: $600k salary if he makes the ML roster. That’s where the Reds are right now. Cold slap to reality.
